BURSON - Gunfire at a Burson home late Wednesday left one family member dead, another in a hospital and a third in jail.

Calaveras County Sheriff Gary Kuntz said deputies called to the home in the 5700 block of Amos Lane about 10:30 p.m. Wednesday found the body of a 52-year-old man in the driveway. A 20-year-old woman critically injured by gunfire was taken to a Modesto hospital. An uninjured child was found in the home.

Deputies arrested one of the home's owners, Charity Ford, 56, on suspicion of murder, attempted murder and child cruelty.

The Sheriff's Office identified the injured woman as Britney McGhee. McGhee is the granddaughter of Ford and the stepgranddaughter of the dead man.

The child found in the house is the 5-month-old son of McGhee.

The name of the dead man was not released Thursday. A Calaveras County Coroner spokesman said not all of the dead man's relatives had been notified.

Kuntz said the incident was "something domestic," that the three adults and the child lived at the house, and that there are no other suspects in the case.

Kuntz said that the weapon used was a handgun.

Investigators were still working at the scene Thursday afternoon and had erected a temporary shade structure in the driveway over the man's body.

According to public records, the home belongs to Randolph and Charity Ford, a husband and wife. The couple previously had an address in Lathrop before they purchased the Burson property in 2005.

Mike Davidson, a neighbor on Amos Lane, said the Fords "pretty much kept to themselves." Davidson said he had met them but didn't know them well.

"My wife heard the gunshots last night," Davidson said.

The home is on an almost-7-acre lot in a neighborhood of similar large-lot rural homes amid the rolling former ranchlands of western Calaveras County.

Davidson said Randolph Ford had worked for the state prison system and that Charity Ford was a homemaker.

Calaveras County law officers so far this year have investigated four separate homicide cases with a total of five victims.
